This is my attempt to keep a climbing thread on the front page as much as possible and maybe even get the number or resposnes the rebulican thread got at some point. I have seen a lot of bitching about how climbing threads drop in a day or two and I feel that is because there is little interaction after the person puts the work into the piece of writing or photos and the conversation does not continue. Sorry if I am repeating something already done and maybe we just bump up an old thread. Unfortunately I have not climbed in the last couple of days as it has almost been a blizzard, but I will soon and I will put up a word or two and/or a picture when I do. Hope everyone is getting out there and make a post here when you do if you like reading and looking at climbing. Mike

Headed out to fix the anchor on a seldom-climbed route called 'Pacific Rim' that climbs a curving arete up to a sizeable roof. The line features a somewhat runout traverse at the top of the arete that takes you out immediately above the roof to the anchor. The traverse is spookier for the follower than the leader.
